On Saturday, there were clashes in Tel Aviv between police and demonstrators demanding the resignation of the Israeli government.

During the demonstration, officers were seen pushing and carrying away protesters.

A fire was also lit during the protest.

Anger is growing throughout Israel over the government’s handling of the war in Gaza and the hostage-taking.

Saturday’s protest came after at least 39 people were killed in Israeli strikes in northern Gaza, according to Palestinian officials and hospital officials.

The war between Israel and Hamas broke out on October 7, when Hamas fighters entered southern Israel, killing about 1,200 people and taking about 250 hostage.

It is not known how many of the hostages taken to Gaza are still alive. However, the government estimates that around 80 people are still alive. Another 40 people may have died.

Israel responded by bombing and invading the enclave, killing more than 37,400 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between combatants and civilians in its count.

Most of them were women and children.
